insurance companies who have ripped the american government off for the last six years, ever since the george w. bush administration created -- creethate medicare advantage program which they did in reconciliation. it is abominable that this government has had to pay a bonus to insurance companies to provide medicare advantage programs, when in fact, they said they could do it cheaper than the fee for service medicare program. 16% bonus over and above the average cost of medicare for seniors is given to insurance companies for no good reason. that bonus that unintended and unnecessary profit is going to be over. secondly, there is fahd and abuse in the medicare system, not from the seniors who are striving to get their benefits, but rather from purveyors, doctors, medical device people and out and out fraudsters. we're going to be hiring some of those people we talked about earlier from the i.r.s. and the c.m.s., the medicare office, those folks are going out there chasing after criminals that are ripping the medicare system off to a fare-thee-well. that's where the reductions are coming from

george romney had made a name for himself by challenging massachusetts senator ted kennedy and losing by a landslide. [laughter] after the games, he returned home to massachusetts and launched a successful gubernatorial run. he converted a $3 billion massachusetts budget deficit into a surplus and enacted a plan to provide affordable health care. he declined to run for a second term and saw the republican nomination for president, being the second most delegates before leaving the race. whatever his next up is, and there is some curiosity about that, it is clear that he is not finished with public service. ladies gentlemen, please welcome to the national press club, the honorable mitt romney. [applause] >> thank you. thank you. thank you for welcoming me here today. you tugged at my heartstrings as you talked about the olympics. it was a thrill to be part of that experience in salt lake city. i was not a great athlete in high school or college. the fact that i was asked to take on the olympic job was somewhat ironic and my sons were quick to point that out to me. i have five of them.
